ICYMI: Cashner solid, but bats miss encore

Andrew Cashner did just about everything Tuesday teammate Tyson Ross had done the day before: he turned in a quality start and limited the opposition to two earned runs over six innings while matching Ross' five strikeouts, all on only 99 pitches. The key difference, however, was not that Ross required 109 pitches to deliver his quality start while earning a victory in Monday's opener, but rather that Ross received a healthy dose of run support against Milwaukee while Cashner once again found himself with little support to lean on en route to a 4-1 loss on Tuesday night.
